Man accused of planting cockroach leg to avoid paying for meal
Posted on 2026-11-12 19:13:14
A man in Kaohsiung has been indicted for fraud after allegedly planting a
cockroach leg in his ice cream at a hot pot restaurant and pretending to feel
sick to avoid paying his bill.

In a news release today, the Kaohsiung District Prosecutors Office says the
man, surnamed Wu, placed the insect part in his dessert in June before
demanding compensation and claiming he needed hospital treatment.

The restaurant manager agreed to waive Wu's bill of more than 4-thousand NT
and accompanied him to hospital, where he also paid for his treatment.

However, the manager later reviewed surveillance footage and discovered that
Wu had brought the cockroach leg with him and planted it in the ice cream.

Prosecutors say Wu used the deception to avoid paying for his meal and obtain
payment for medical expenses.

He was indicted on fraud charges on November 6th.
